Driverr — Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 18, 2026

Driverr connects over SSH to machines you own. There is no service in the middle: no backend of mine, no account system, no analytics, and nothing of yours on anybody else’s computer. I (the developer) never see your data, because none of it is ever sent to me. This app-specific policy supplements my general privacy policy and takes precedence for Driverr where they differ.

What the App Stores

  • Private keys and passwords — kept in the iOS keychain on your device. They are never written to a file or a log, and never transmitted anywhere except to the host you pointed them at.
  • Host details — the name, address and username you enter for each machine, stored on the device only.
  • Known host keys — the public key each host presented the first time you connected, so Driverr can tell you if it ever changes. Public keys, held on the device.
  • Local preferences, such as your terminal theme, font and type size.

What the App Reads

Whatever your own machines send back over the SSH connection you opened: terminal output, and the workspace, tab and pane structure of a herdr session if you are running one. It is fetched to be drawn on screen. Driverr keeps no history of it, builds no profile from it, and uploads none of it.

Where Your Data Lives

On your device and on your own machines — nowhere else. Driverr has no cloud component of any kind: no iCloud sync, no remote database, no crash reporting, no telemetry. If a host is not reachable from your device, Driverr shows you nothing, because there is no copy anywhere else to fall back on.

Host Key Checking

Driverr remembers the key a host presents the first time it sees it, and stops hard if that key ever changes — the standard defence against someone impersonating your machine. That comparison happens entirely on your device, against keys stored on your device. No key registry of mine exists to consult.

Third-Party Services

None. Driverr integrates no analytics, advertising, attribution, or data-collection service. Its third-party code is SwiftNIO SSH and SwiftTerm, both open source, both running entirely on your device, and neither contacting anything but the hosts you configured.

Deleting Your Data

You can delete individual hosts and SSH keys inside Driverr at any time. Deleting a host also removes its saved password and remembered host key. Deleting an SSH key removes its private key from the Keychain.

Deleting the app removes data in its app container, such as hosts and settings, but iOS may retain Keychain items after an app is uninstalled. To remove saved credentials before uninstalling Driverr, delete every host and SSH key inside the app first.

Children’s Privacy

Driverr does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13.
